I really enjoyed this movie, it rocked. Plain and simple. BUT, I
think that was only because I had read the book, the day before. So
much was cut! Nothing blended perfectly with the movie, also making
no sense.
This is not a case of the book being better than the movie, ‘cause
the book is a movie tie-in – it was written from the script.

Still I am glad to have the DVD stand on the bookshelf next to the
book. If you have the chance, get the book and read it. It is horror.

There are only a few differences:
1. Michael is holding his hands above his head trying to fend off
the rain.
2. The girl in the subway is shot in the leg, not the shoulder.
Apart from the edited scenes that ruined the movie, I can’t recall
much of what else was missing.

If you liked the movie or thought it was so-so, get the book and
read it, the movie will then make sense.

Why do editors feel the need to cut good shit from the movies?
Thanks to DVD we can now see the cut scenes.
